Kim loved using the Poppy Stamps dies as she found they cut perfectly every time. Although Kim does not often cut her photos into shapes, she loved the whimsical feel that the frame die added to this photo of her sister with her new husband. The leaves are so fine and delicate and added that perfect finishing touch to the beautiful Prima flower. The final die Kim used was the little bird which is perched on the heart at the end of the title.

The Poppy Stamp Dies; Lorelai Leaf and Lorelai outline Leaf are wonderfully versatile. For this layout Louise N has used both in different configurations; small single leaves, cut from the original, as well as full branches.

Creating thank you cards for Men can be a bit tricky, but Chris has shown us how to whip up a few cards that are not only very easy to make, but also suited for Men. These thank you cards for her daughters male teachers were created by punching out the Lorelai Leaf Poppy Stamp Die from a piece of white cardstock and then gluing some Bo Bunny Welcome Home pattern paper behind the die negative. She then mounted this piece onto a white card using 3D foam tape. The sentiment was stamped in matching coloured ink and using the Hero Arts Thank you stamp.

The Poppy Dies are perfect for setting a little scene on your cards! Chris has used the Carousel Bird Cage, Nested Bird and Ivy Tendrils to create this delicate, romantic card. She added some Memory Box posie dies for some added dimension on the card.

Create your own embossing panel using Poppy dies. Chris punched out 3 of the Lorelai Leaf dies from white cardstock and then adhered them onto some thick cardstock. She ran this through her embossing machine along with a rubber shim to create an embossed background onto some plain cardstock. Chris then swiped the background over with a little green ink to create this fabulous background for her card.

Suz has used some gorgeous Poppy Stamp die designs in this lovely card. The window box, window shutters and flowers are all super thin dies, perfectly proportioned for card making or a panel in a scrapbook page. Suz especially loves the shutters which feature each louvre in beautiful detail – she has inked and gessoed them to give a more distressed look.

The flower die does come with flower tops but Suz has given her card added dimension by adding cute Prima embellishments. Instead of a window die cut (and there even is one!) Suz decided to add a fun Studio Calico Polaroid, and backed with with mirror paper from Tim Holtz.
